Matt Waldman’s RSP Cast catches up with Rotoworld NFL Draft analyst and podcast host Josh Norris for a discussion about the value of post-draft press conferences.
- Why it was accidentally fitting that I referred to Josh as “Dan Morgan,” at the beginning of the show.
- Patterns Josh has discovered that give readers a better sense of how coaches and teams view their draft.
- Are there underlying red flags or positive markers that press conferences reveal?
- Josh’s list of players to whom we should be paying close attention based on these press conferences including…
- Antonio Callaway and why the Browns have the right coach for him and the willingness to put in the time.
- Justin Watson and the mission Tampa’s GM had to get him.
- Chase Edmonds earning a big-time pre-draft player comp that Steve Keim.
- James Washington, the next quality receiver in a long line of successful Steeler receiver picks.
- Jaylen Samuels is a better replacement for LeVeon Bell right now than James Conner.
- How much value can we place on a position coach liking a player?
